It's been a challenging semester - I've really appreciated all your comments and emails over the last few weeks - thanks so much for your friendship and encouragement.
And a big welcome to new Followers, I didn't expect to see so many new faces popping up while my blog was inactive, nice to know that you visited and decided to stay around :)
I do have one little thing to show you. Towards the end of my mid-year break I started this little beach house daybed for Marit and I've worked on it now and then over the past few weeks.
It's now in her otherwise empty beach house which hopefully we can tempt her to work on soon because it's sure to be gorgeous.
Marit has some fabulous projects on her blog including a conservatory which I just love, just click here to visit her at Black Cat Cottage. She's a really talented miniaturist, a couple of examples are these tiny wooden candlesticks, etc and the truly amazing birdcage - complete with bird - which are pieces of hers that I'm so lucky to have.
I've got lots to catch up on, in both the 'real' world as well as minis, but I'll be back to post again soon because I want to share with you some lovely minis I've received during my blog break.

Oh, really seems to me to see your smile :-)
I'm glad you now can find a little more time for us...
Here are just a mid-autumn, and already starting the season ailments (colds, cough, pain in the bones).
Luckily there is a blog to keep us healthy :-)
Mini hugs, Flora

So nice to see you again! Your daybed is so pretty! Love the pillows and linens. It will look great in a beach house!
The daybed is very great and lovely. I like it.
In Germany it will get rather cold and dark now, we have the beginning of winter.
I look forward to your mini-works.

Your work is so neat and tidy! This is beautiful, simple, clean lines and no hint it's miniature.
I agree with Linda, blogging is part of real life, when real life isn't so crazy we can't take time toplay!
So glad to hear that you get to have a nice break from studies!
That daybed is so wonderful. Really, really wonderful. I love the linens also! So pretty. I wouldn't mind having that in 1:1!!
Hugs,
Jill
PS: Thanks so much for the birthday wishes!
Thanks for all your kind comments. I really can't take credit entirely for the style and the colouring however as I was very much guided by Marit's preferences.
No more mini work done yet, but I do at least feel some sense of accomplishment as I've finally got around to some long overdue spring cleaning :)
Welcome back Norma. I totally understand the relief to be over the busy times....it's been like that here too and I am just catching my breath! The sofa is gorgeous and I love the "envelope" cushions!
WB Norma!!! :):)
Good to see you back and even better to see your work again after such a long break :). It's quite clear that you are still doing such a good job with the minis. That bench is sensationalllll! :)
Wow. That daybed is beautiful. Great job. I would love to try to do something like this myself. Have a great day.
Hugs,
Carey
Hello, I love your mini stuff is cute.
Hi again Norma,
Thank you for the comments to my blog, they are always lovely to recieve. I have infact been to Lea's shop....several times. She will also be at Paris Creations which is on here in Paris this Sunday, so needless to say I am looking forward to that. Rosanna is also coming, so that will complete the day nicely. It has been a great holiday, but I am now looking forward to my own bed...lol!
